@mahamad802fikh@awmanspider What does the rest of the text say then? Only things that survive in Coptic still isn't any Islamic texts
We literally got pagan and even manichean texts in Coptic but none Islamic and that greeting doesn't make it explicitly Islamic.
@Bedrix25116@mmmmw_88 على فكرة، لو كنت عارف أي حاجة عن العرب، كنت هتعرف إنهم كانوا مهتمين جداً بأنسابهم. لو العروبة دي مجرد لغة، العرب مكانوش هيهتموا أوي بأسامي أجدادهم، ومكانش الهندي أو الباكستاني أو الأجنبي اللي شغال في الخليج وبيعرف عربي هيعتبر نفسه عربي
@mahamad802fikh@awmanspider Can you tell me any attestations of the phrase you said prior to Islam because right now the phrase you said is grammatically incorrect for Coptic.
It would've been said as ϧⲉⲛ ⲫ̀ⲣⲁⲛ ⲙ̀ⲫ̀ⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲣⲉϥϣⲉⲛⲥⲏⲧ.
That being said unless it's attested it's wrong
@nephto2@Smasher2501 Being brown and having SSA are too different things. I didn't say having SSA ancestry or any type of ancestry is wrong either, I just pointed where the post 7th century shift happened.
Where did I say Egyptians and copts are white (besides old tweets where I'm clearly trolling)
@mahamad802fikh@awmanspider Also in your text it's transliterated from Arabic using Coptic words not actually translated.
These transliterations are common in eastern Christian history where Arabic is written using non Arabic script like karshuni (Arabic with syriac script)
Judeo Arabic (Hebrew script) etc
@mahamad802fikh@awmanspider A spoiler alert but this is still a Christian text.
Post Islamic Coptic literature adopted that phrase for some time before it died out. But it's found on lots of Christian texts like this example
Unfortunately the issue is self imposed.
Egyptians spent a long time pretending to be anything but Egyptian but once being Egyptian became trendy and people used Egyptians own words against them they are working overtime to prove the obvious
فجأة كده زعلت من تاريخك لما واحد من بلد العدو خدها وفضحك بيها.
بقالكم سنين بتقولوا إنكم عرب وفجأة لما واحد غريب رد على كلامكم زعلتوا.
ليل نهار بتشتموا فينا وبتطينوا عيشتنا وبتزعل لما حد يفضحك.
فخورين بالفتوحات لحد ما الخواجة يقول إنكم جيتوا بالسيوف.
إسرائيلي بيقول:
"المصريين اللي موجودين دلوقتي مستعمرين، والمصريين الأصليين كانوا الأقباط اللي اتعمل فيهم تطهير عرقي، اتقتلوا أو اتجبروا يسيبوا دينهم ويدخلوا الإسلام"
يا تري سمعتو الكلام دا من مين قبل كدا ؟
